Join Rehema Marie Clarken (HU-Rhetoric) to hear how writing a book can turn strangers into a community and how writing acquaintances find a common point of connection to deepen their friendships through publishing. A Hundred Thousand Hopes: Stories on the Power of Prayer is a collection of personal stories, essays, and poems from 27 authors from around the world. Each shares a different perspective when reflecting on how to navigate the struggles of life.
Rehema will discuss how writing communities encourage members to share in new creative ways.
Library East Reading Room, Thursday Oct. 29, 4:30pm.
